gearhead204 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I bought the gold dog paper weight at the mack gift store and then swapped it with the one on the hood. the paper weight was 60.00 the dog by himself I think was 80.00.......I just thought it was nuts so I went the way I did Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38218-chrome-plating/#findComment-271962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baxter Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 Cheaper is not always better. Bought a cheaper truck one time, a Ford, always wished I had paid the extra for the Mack. Thought replating the original long eared Bulldog would be nice.

rsb502 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Leonard plating in Nashville also does good work and is cheaper on small parts than advanced, they take a little longer but the cost makes up for it.
